An attempt to keep track of some of what goes into my head.

Logicomix: An epic search for truth
Apostolos Doxiadis and Christos Papadimitriou

A graphic novel exploring some of the ideas of Bertrand Russell. It covers some interesting territory, particularly the attempt to systematize mathematics and the relationship between logic and madness. But it doesn't delve very deeply. I didn't feel that the graphic novel presentation added very much, and I felt like there were a lot of extra levels of framing that were ultimately clumsy attempts to pull threads together.
